The premiere cancelation is the latest development following a Nov. 24 cyberattack on Sony. On Tuesday, hackers released additional data, invoking the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks in an email to reporters.

"Soon all the world will see what an awful movie Sony Pictures Entertainment has made," the message from the hackers read in part. "The world will be full of fear. Remember the 11th of September 2001. We recommend you to keep yourself distant from the places at that time. (If your house is nearby, you'd better leave.)"
